I think if the universe is infinite, there must be infinite possibilities for life. Also the possibility that the universe is so big it appears to be eternal but isn't.
I’m a straight man who loves my daily dose of Cox
with infinite time (eternity) of a Universe, enough time would have passed for this phenomenon* to happen.
*with enough time all the bodies of the universe would be at a balanced temperature, pretty much one value of temperature for the whole universe. They call it i guess, balancing, 2nd law of thermodynamic$, y heat death. It's something like, heat transfers from hot to cold automatically. And it is my understanding that heat travels in waves, as radiation. And if the temperature of the bodies of the universe, mass, molecules of matter, are still very different from each other (The sun and the earth for example), then the Universe needs more time for this temperature balancing to happen… And if the Universe had been there forever, all the years in the past would have been enough for this phenomenon to happen.
That 2nd law also talks about Entropy but I dont understand that sh3t.
So if by this reasoning the Universe is not eternal, this implies that it didnt exist before. First it didnt exist, and then it started existing, and time came with it. And according to the Big Bang theory, it started existing 13.8 billion years ago. i thought… the Universe could have created itself. So I asked myself: How can X (the universe) work to build X? Nothing in the Universe can do anything to create the Universe because there is nothing there to begin with. Also, where did the energy contained in the Universe come from? And also, the force to push trillions and trillions of stars so many kilometers away come from? It had to come from outside of the Universe. An unknown force that we will call Y (dark energy maybe? But dark energy is inside the Universe, so no). And interestingly, the bodies of the Universe are accelerating, increasing their speed, which in a car, and with our bodies can only be achieved by the doing of the work, exerting force, using energy. Unless it's just moving by inertia or something.
The amount of matter, mass, molecules and chemical compounds, and energy, is constant since the begginning of the Universe. In other words, the same amount of mass and energy released in the Big Bang is what we have today. The spacetime fabric however, is expanding.
Will finish later
The word 'in' merits a careful philosophical analysis.
